Illness and trauma create a rift in ourselves and our lives that can tear apart a friendship or family. I work with individuals, couples & families through a multicultural perspective to help people grow and rebuild relationships, to develop self acceptance and understanding in the face of your difficult and profound and life-changing experiences.

We'll work to help rebuild your sense of self & identity after the life-altering experience of chronic illness & complex trauma. We'll work experientially to integrate your past experiences & worldview with your current quality of life and relationship. Building supports in your community and developing resilience to deal with whatever life may throw at you.

Jeff Lang is a registered psychotherapist who works with individuals suffering under the burden of unresolved trauma. Jeff approaches all behavior as a coping strategy to minimize the pain from traumatic experiences, and seeks to restore the individual to wholeness rather than treat the symptoms.

Contemplative Psychotherapy is a mindfulness/awareness approach focusing the therapeutic relationship on the here and now, which might include past discoveries and future inclinations. This method includes various techniques or no technique at all. Depending on what is suitable for the client. I value being present, compassionate, and genuine. I have daily practices that serve to develop a larger capacity to hold and be present with the pain and suffering a client might be experiencing in an accepting manner without bias, or personal reactivity. From this, the client learns to hold and accept their own suffering without rejecting parts of themselves; and thus feels more whole and empowered, seeing that all situations are workable.

With over 22 years of experience, my work is to help facilitate a greater alignment and expression of your distinct, authentic nature and thus help you to imbue your life with enriched meaning and fulfillment. Our work together will reawaken and draw upon your intrinsic wholeness, and you will recover healing and growth in life’s wounds, sorrows, and setbacks.

You will learn to identify, understand, and disempower self-defeating thought patterns and outdated behaviors, and you will replace limiting perspectives with the genuine awareness of wide open options, possibilities, and resources. As your connection with yourself and your insight deepen, you will give rise to fresh opportunities and directions. A singular array of beautiful and radiant qualities is your birthright; together we will cultivate the unique beauty that is yours.
